1808réf. 689671808. Fine. 26 mars 1808 20 x 24.80 cm Une feuille Long autograph letter by Stendhal addressed to his sister Pauline written in fine handwriting with black ink. Address of Stendhal's father where his sister resides in Grenoble with the stamp ""n°51 Grande Armée."" Red wax seal bearing Stendhal's coat of arms. Several original folds inherent to postal delivery. A paper loss due to the unsealing of the letter has been skillfully restored. Published in his Correspondance ed. Henri Martineau Paris Le Divan 1933 vol. 3 no. 262 A pp. 26-29. A very beautiful letter filled with romantic passion blending childhood nostalgia with sentimental tales and foreshadowing The Red and the Black. This letter is part of the correspondence between twenty-five years old Henri Beyle and his sister Pauline three years his junior. This epistolary relationship which quickly took the form of a ""journal"" as Pauline's responses were rare. It is deemed a crucial milestone in the intellectual development of the future Stendhal: ""Here are my dreams my dear friend; I am almost ashamed of them; but after all you are the only person in the world to whom I dare confess them."" In this letter which attests to the strong bond between brother and sister Stendhal then in Germany expresses his deep nostalgia: ""I revisited in my memory all the time we spent together: how I did not love you in our childhood; how I once hit you at Claix in the kitchen. I hid in the little book cabinet; my father came back a moment later furious and said to me: 'Wicked child! I would eat you!' Then all the woes inflicted upon us by poor Aunt Séraphie; our walks along those paths surrounded by stagnant water towards Saint-Joseph."" These regrets about the past are accompanied by a typically Stendhalian melancholy: ""Alas! That delightful happiness I once imagined I glimpsed it once at Frascati and a few other times in Milan. Since then it has not returned; I marvel at my inability to feel it. The mere memory of it is more powerful than all the present joys I can procure."" This evocation of the Italy he longs for is intertwined with memories of the women he loved: ""I told you that while in Frascati at a charming fireworks display at the moment of the explosion Adèle leaned on my shoulder for an instant; I cannot express how happy I was. For two years whenever I was overwhelmed with sorrow this image gave me courage and made me forget all my troubles. I had long forgotten it; I tried to recall it today. Against my will I see Adèle as she is; but as I am now there is no longer the slightest joy in this memory."" This lengthy account of Adèle Rebuffet his cousin with whom he had a profound romantic relationship before forming a closer bond with her mother reflects Stendhal's sentimentality. He also mentions another of his great passions Angelina Pietragrua the ideal Italian woman and embodiment of his Milanese memories: ""Madame Pietragrua is different: her memory is linked to that of the Italian language; whenever something pleases me in a role for a woman in a work I involuntarily put it into her mouth."" This ""role for a woman"" that Stendhal refers to echoes the central theme of this letter the work Il Matrimonio segreto by composer Cimarosa: ""Do you sometimes play the Matrimonio Its the passage Cara sposa at the beginning between Carolina and Paolino. . But play the Matrimonio for my sake especially Signor deh permettette and the finale Io rival de mia sorella."" This opera by Cimarosa remained a constant throughout the writer's life and work. In his Memoirs of an Egotist 1832 he explains: ""In Milan in 1820 I wanted to have this written on my tomb . I wanted a marble tablet in the shape of a playing card: ""Errico Beyle - Milanese - Visse scrisse amò - Quest'anima adorava Cimarosa Mozart e Shakspeare - Morì di anni. il . 18."" ""Henri Beyle - Milanese - He lived wrote loved - This soul adored Cimarosa Mozart and Shakespeare - He unknown

1805réf. 669741805. Fine. 10 Floréal 13 30 avril 1805 18.50 x 23.10 cm une feuille Stendhal's autograph letter addressed to his sister Pauline. 28 lines written with a fine writing in black ink. First name ""Pauline"" from the hand of the sender at the bottom of the letter. Inventory number ""36"" in ink from another hand. Two small traces of stamp and stamp a small tear restored in the bottom margin of the page. A few tiny folds inherent in the enveloping of the letter. Rare and beautiful letter of Stendhal addressed to his sister Pauline in which all the sensitivity of the young man and his love for the dramatic art shows more than twenty years before his big romantic successes. This letter comes from the correspondence between Henri Bayle here twenty-two years with his sister Pauline three years younger. This true epistolary liaison which quickly took the form of a ""diary"" - Pauline's answers were rare - is an essential milestone in the constitution of the intellectual journey of the future Stendhal. Our letter of a great lyricism testifies to the strength of the bond uniting the young writer and his sister: ""Let's shake each other my good friend. We will never find anyone who loves Pauline as Henry nor will Henry ever find a more beautiful soul than Pauline. ""The use of the third person and a lover vocabulary erects the young woman to the rank of alter ego a sister-soul and even perfect mistress. The young Henri is then precisely under the yoke of a devouring passion for the actress Melanie Guilbert whom he met during his declamation classes at Dugazon: "" I'm going to be bored perhaps by my dark sadness. I know very well that the seriousness of ardent passions is not pleasant. "" Contrasting with this passionate relationship Pauline symbolizes reason and balance a figure that Henri like a pygmalion can fashion at leisure. In good tutor he advises: ""Learn by heart roles. About declamation I will teach you a thousand things. I'm bringing you a Gil Blas and a Tracy. ""We understand here worship Stendhal devoted to the theater from his earliest years both as a player as a playwright the fund of its archives to the Grenoble Library contains nearly 700 sheets of blanks:"" I am in despair at not being able to wear you Beanies. But wait maybe someday will come . as Ulino says. ""This passion for theater Henry intends to pass it to his sister:"" We will work like hell during the time that I stay in Grenoble. ""In total opposite view with the education of women in his time he put a point of honor that Pauline is an educated person; In several letters moreover we find injunctions from the brother ordering his sister to give up needlework in favor of the reading he recommends. Truly obsessed with theater and convinced that he will become an author of successful comedies he works tirelessly: ""I am told a room where I will not be free and where I can not just declaim. Try to disturb this arrangement. ""Years before writing great novels that make her famous Stendhal already understands that loneliness is for him a source of creation and says:"" A lonely is jealous of his freedom. It is his greatest good as that of all men. "" unknown

Light Wear Fraying At Tips Small Repaired Chip At Lower Left Edge Of Spine Refurbished. Stendhal's Too Frank Travel Observations Scarce In This First English Translation. His Observations At Geneva Begin "The Prudery Of The Women At Geneva Is Incredible And Truly Ridiculous. I Have Observed That They Say Exactly The Same Thing To Every Stranger Presented To Them. To Repeat A Certain Formula Taught Them By Their Nurses. I Would Fain Know Who The Traveler Is That First Asserted There Was Such A Thing As Liberty In Switzerland. At Geneva And Berne There Are Four Hundred Surveillans. If You Offend Them Only By The Manner In Which Your Cravat Is Tied You Immediately Become An Object Of Their Persecution." Further Observations Made The Likelihood Of A Further English Translation Small Indeed: "Nothing Can Equal My Admiration Of The English Legislature Unless It Be The Repulsion I Feel From English Society. They Are The Most Unsocial Of Beings; Perhaps For That Reason The Least Happy. To Be Held In Consideration By An Englishman The Most Perfect Air Of Coldness Must Be Assumed." I Don't See Such Observations In My Michelin Or Lonely Planet Guides Perhaps We Have Evolved Or Perhaps We Are Too Terrified To Speak Out. Henry Colburn hardcover
